MSNBC Joins the Nakba Chorus

Still more insanely over the top “Nakba” propaganda from the mainstream media at MSNBC, by yet another Arab writer: As Israelis celebrate, Palestinians mourn.

This is how the media are almost universally spinning Israel’s 60th anniversary. It’s nauseating.

JERUSALEM – Women screaming and children trying to escape a village on fire.

These are just two of the images that two Palestinian sisters, Fatima and Zeinab Jaber, 65 and 71, live with from an event they witnessed 60 years ago. They are haunted, too, by the memory of their mother, Nuzah, who they recall crying as she rushed members of their family to safety.

And they are their last recollections of their home, the village of Deir Yassin, as it was being overrun and destroyed by armed Jewish militant groups.

It gets worse. You won’t believe how much worse.

UPDATE at 5/15/08 2:24:01 pm:

The truth about Deir Yassin.

UPDATE at 5/15/08 2:44:51 pm:

At Google News, there are currently 1,956 results in a search for Nakba.

UPDATE at 5/15/08 4:08:07 pm:

In the last 90 minutes, the number of “Nakba” articles found at Google News has more than doubled, to 4,611. Propaganda is flooding the newswires.
